Salt on your lips and the engine’s staccato thrum set the pace as the speedboat peels away from Rawai pier toward two of Phuket’s clearest-water neighbors. Racha (Raya) Island rises as a low, green crescent where coral gardens slope into blue; Coral Island (Koh Hae) answers with shallow bays and snorkel-friendly reefs. The morning light off the bow makes the sea look close enough to touch.
